How did you make this transition? Any credentials/certifications you needed? Did you transition within the same company?
- innocentoldguy 4y agoMy college degree was in writing, so I used that and a portfolio to make the transition. During interviews, it seems my software engineering experience and portfolio are more valued than my writing degree though.
